Development of the Lesson 1. Ask the pupils to analyze the pictures on pages 92-93. Talk about family members. 2. Give the pupils the opportunity to introduce one’s family. (By previous assignment, let them bring to class a photograph of their own families.) 3. Encourage the pupils to tell what family members do at home and how they help one another. 4. Ask the pupils to tell how many they are in the their own family. Let them show this by counting off. 5. Let the pupils conclude what a family is. Find this out on page 92. Say this, “The family is the smallest group that lives together in a community.” 6. Show on a sand table a community that is made up of families. Cut out pictures of different families and mount them on a cardboard and let them stand in the sand table. Cut out also pictures of houses, trees, plants, and animals. Ask the pupils to say this, “The community is made up of families.” Find this out on page 92. 7. Have a simulation game. Ask the pupils to act out in the classroom what is shown on page 93. Have the children show what they do at home. 8. Transform the classroom into a community. Assign pupils who will form families in a community. These families will show how they help and cooperate in their community in cleaning and making it beautiful. 9. Call the pupils’ attention to family size. Find this out on pages 95-96. Analyze the pictures that show a small family on pages 94-95. Ask: What are the things that a small family needs? Is it too much or just enough? Follow this up on family income. Say: A small family can easily meet the things they need even if the income or earning is not so much. 23
